Caring for the Caregiver
Sometimes, finding
help when you need it is one of the biggest challenges of caregiving.
There are many resources that can provide you with additional
information,
assistance and services, both on our site and on other sites.
The Eldercare Locator
Helps families find service providers and formal
caregivers where their loved one lives...even if they live some place else!
Through the Older Americans Act
and state and local resources, a network
of state and local agencies on aging are available to
assist you in caring for your loved one, whether you live next
door or in the next state. Look through this list and contact
the agency closest to the person needing care.
Check
our Resources & Links tab
for other written and video resources.
You can also use our Site
Index (located in the footer at the bottom of the page) to see what
other information is on our site.
Our topic pull-down menu provides shortcuts to other topics located on
our site, and our Search feature (top of the page) allows you to look for
something specific.
Additional resources are available from other sites and organizations.
